The Ocean Cleanup started waste collection in Pacific Ocean

Last year we decided to donate our Christmas budget to a very special project – The Ocean Cleanup. Its ambitious goal is to rid the world’s oceans of plastic waste. After 5 years of research, engineering and testing, the first cleanup system, named “Wilson”, is on its way to the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. It started its journey to this huge gyre of marine debris on 8th September 2018. There, the system will start its work and contribute to saving the sensitive ocean ecosystem.
